Episode 38: Meetup Session Live With Dr. Kofidis on Myocardial Bridge Scarring and More.

  • Resumen

  • Is there a right surgical approach that completely transforms the lives of patients with myocardial bridges? This episode is a live recording of the first ever myocardial bridge meetup where Dr. Theo Kofidis, took the time to virtually join us from Greece for the first session of the day. We learned of his ambitious project of revamping a JCI accredited hospital into a cutting-edge medical facility. He takes questions from the group including attendee Jane's prolonged struggle with myocardial bridge symptoms and provides suggestions and support from his perspective. He shares insights into the significance of timely intervention and the crucial consideration of surgical options when medication fails. Questions from the group included best practices for unroofing a myocardial bridge. Dr. Kofidis outlines the meticulous surgical techniques that ensure optimal outcomes in his opinion. We dig deeper into the importance of global collaboration among healthcare professionals to enhance treatment efficacy and work toward identifying long term, symptom free patients to better support proper procedures for "unroofing". We spoke of advanced diagnostic tools like 3D reconstruction and high-frequency ultrasound that aid in post-operative evaluation, and heard why minimally invasive endoscopic approaches, complemented by tactile feedback, offer significant benefits. The group got expert advice on achieving comprehensive and precise surgical results for myocardial bridges that we're now sharing with anyone interested. Finally, we ventured into the realm of advanced diagnostics and the role of AI in cardiology. Dr. Kofidis discussed the underdiagnosed prevalence of myocardial bridges and their connection to coronary artery disease and coronary artery spasms. We conclude with an engaging discussion on medical tourism in Greece, highlighting its potential advantages and the robust support system within the medical community. Dr. Kofidis, as always, offers his expert advice and invites any concerned or interested party to reach out for a discovery call to see if Greece might be an option for you. What a special treat it was indeed.
